Disc Error

[mapuc]

Yesterday something interesting/funny/weird happened to my computer.

It was about 6 pm. was finish with my daily doings.

Clicked on the on/off button to start the computer.

Before the logo appeared on the screen a little message appeared in the bottom of the screen

It was only there for about 1-2 sec. Use any key to stop...something with disc.

Then it shut it self down.

Waited a few second, pressed once again on the on/off button.

The Logo came a few second my desktop came up...then a message popped up on the screen.

You have to restart the computer to fix the disc error.

Ok, so I restarted the computer.

The first that came up, was not the logo, but a message.

"Scanning and repairing disc....(and then percentage in how far the progress)
The computer restarted by itself
Same message and percentage in progress.

A second restart

Then a new message
Diagnostic
This message was on the screen for about 1 minute.
Another message came up
Repair of disc estimated time more than 1 hour.

Ok so I have to wait for about an hour before I can use my computer...this was what I thought..

The computer went back to normal, the desktop(where all my icon is) came up and I could do anything.

I guess this repair of the disc error may have been done in the background(or what you call it)
